The second event in the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup Playoffs is the Deutsche Bank Championship that begins on Friday and ends on Labor Day. This year’s Monday round will have some poignancy to go with the excitement.

According to Golfweek, tournament organizers have invited the 264 victims of the April 15 Boston Marathon bombings to attend the tournament on what has been designated “Boston Strong Day.” Players, caddies and fans are being asked to wear combinations of blue and gold.

Also, the Spaulding Adaptive Golf Program, Golfsmith International, Nike Golf, and the Deutsche Bank Championship officials are helping to facilitate the outfitting of golf clubs and apparel to a number of the survivors who suffered several physical injuries.

To help the One Fund Boston, established to help offer financial assistance to victims and their families, “Boston Strong” bracelets will be sold for $3 with all proceeds going to the cause.

Rory McIlroy is defending his title this week at the TPC Boston, while Tiger Woods tries to hold on to his top spot in the FedEx Cup standings.
